Anticipating the impact of the Brexit

Anticipating the impact of the Brexit

The Brexit has been one of the most impacting decisions affecting the European Union, comparable to the adoption of the Euro. To assess such an impact over a Southern Europe´s regional economy like Murcia, TASO is hired by the Regional Government in 2017 to carry out an impact analysis and organize sector-focused responses on the seven sectors most exposed to export to the UK, e.g. fresh fruits and vegetables, canned agro products, wine, furniture industry, IT sector, chemistry, metal-mechanics.

TASO was working hand in hand with the business associations involved and leading firms, and it also included a review of emerging lobby strategies in different member states that are also facing this challenge. As a final output, the Region of Murcia has got a single, clear strategy to respond to the economic impact of the Brexit.
